Scout report

Squad depthCentral midfielder

M. Benger is a 28-year-old central midfielder at Preußen Münster, rated 35.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 254th of 320 on scout potential in the 2. Bundesliga. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (33.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.47 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Benger.

Judged on this season alone, Benger graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 35th of 38 of the 38 central midfielders in the 2. Bundesliga, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 3.465 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 15 → 9). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 36, 28th of 38 of the 38 central midfielders in the 2. Bundesliga. At 28 Benger is in his prime years, and a market index of 8.2 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Benger missed 3 games through injury (stress reaction of the bone) out of roughly 34 this season. The 15 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

3.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 15 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 33.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 35.9, Benger carries the 28th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the 2. Bundesliga of 38, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Preußen Münster finished 18th of 18) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
